The AG program is absolutely amazing. My kids love this school. They have an amazing counselor. All the teachers are wonderful to work with and really focus on the kids. I went there growing up and now my kids are. We absolutely love this school.

As a current student at Bluestem, I would say I'm glad to have come from another school. I did my elementary and middle school education elsewhere, so I just came to finish high school and graduate. I have to say from my few years here that I'm way ahead of the other students and I've not learned anything new besides in the arts. The fine arts teachers are amazing at what they do and truly care about their jobs. As for the rest of the teachers, it's not too terrible, but it's also not top notch teaching. The only time you get "homework" is if you need to study for a test and that's about all. The student leadership is very poor, and school spirit is kind of rare.More than 50% of the students are disrespectful and rude. Teachers and staff don't punish the kids who need it. I haven't had any problems with bullying, but I know some who do. Reporting the bullying is almost pointless, and this school has the most drama I've ever experienced. People love gossip and teachers join in on it most of the time too. Kids with learning differences are often overlooked and not cared about. Students who are failing are ignored and allowed to fail.Bluestem does have it's positive aspects though. If there's a serious issue with student safety, it gets taken care of. Threats are taken seriously and dealt with quickly. The principal is great, a fun personality, and easy to talk to about any concerns. The teachers are active in the students lives and most of them are really nice people.In the end, I have to say I'd recommend Bluestem over any of the surrounding schools. They're an agriculture and business rich school, they offer a large variety of classes in the high school, and overall the teachers are easy to get along with. If you're an average student, this is the place for you and you will find your group of like minded friends quickly. If you're an advanced or gifted student, I'd recommend going to a larger school in a bigger town/city.
